  4. Industry Concerns • Conflicting or contradictory contractual requirements • Duplicative management systems reviews • Unique system surveillance oversight activities • Proliferation of independent approaches—reminiscent of past atmosphere • Not consistent with industry-owned program management EVM systems • Incongruent with goal of streamlining acquisition process • DCMA experience base and resources declining • Avenues of communication and problem resolution at OSD level have eroded

  5. Government Issues • Application/implementation diverse in industry (among and within companies) • Industry still developing infrastructure to support “ownership” (interpretative guide, audit credentials, etc.) • EVM still being institutionalized as an integral program management tool • Varying levels of confidence in reported data • In some cases, government program managers taking actions as a result of industry’s maturity issues

  6. The Path Forward • Use DAEC as a senior-level forum to continue dialogue and share improvement ideas • Establish joint government/industry working-level team to assess issues/ concerns and recommend solutions • Identify team members – e-mail names and contact information to deborah.tomsic@osd.mil
